Weight Pull

What does this class cover?
Weight pull is an all breed sport that includes a dog wearing a properly fitting weight pull harness and pulling a weighted cart on wheels, sled, or cart on rails (similar to a train track) 16 feet in 60 seconds.

Weight pull however does not need to be competitive to be beneficial to the average dog. Drag weighting provides a directed natural outlet for the average dog’s desire to pull! For the higher energy dogs in the crowd, weight pull is a safe and efficient way to meet big exercise demand and is an all around great exercise for any sport dog!

In this class we will get our dogs accustomed to the weight pulling harnesses. We will also teach them the foundations to pull safely and efficiently and add weight as the dogs progress.

Items to bring to class
Treats and a tug toy (harnesses and weights will be provided)
